"Excellent. The contractor that I hired to do the job screwed the whole thing up. Right-Way did a fantastic job to correct all of the mistakes, make it structurally sound and was able to do all of the work including stucco and electrical in addition to the framing. It looks fantastic. They squared up the framing, reset the windows, repaired the roof, did some brick work and finished it with stucco. I am very pleased with the job. They did it all at a very fair price."

"So so I wanted 2 light fixtures installed and there was problems with both, Nick ended up repairing 2 lights instead. I am not allowed by my husband to use unlicensed contractors anymore and was so surprised that Angie's list would recommend unlicensed handymen. How do I in the future be sure I am only hiring licensed contractors?"

"He resealed around the chimney and the two sky light windows on a rather steep roof which required the use of a safety belt and ropes.  He then cleaned out the rain gutters and installed some wire screening over the gutters to prevent more leaves from clogging them up.  
He also purchased the required roofing compound in advance, as we had agreed, and gave me the receipt for it after the work was completed for reimbursement. 
He did a very professional job and I would recommend his services to anyone in need of handyman repairs.

"We had a great experience with Acra as the company worked with us on design, appropriate product selection, and execution of projects. The entire crew was professional, timely, and tidy. Any changes we requested changes through the construction process were done without problems. We love our new kitchen and bathrooms! Acra was great to work with and we will definitely hire the company for any future projects!"

"Wonderful to work with Jack and Tom. They gave me a set price and immediately put my carpentry project on their schedule. They refinished and repaired treads on 30 year old floating staircase when others wanted to replace with new. Wood was cracked and full of nail and staple holes. They recognized the wood is high quality white oak and worth salvaging however! They are professional, responsible, considerate and detailed in their work. True craftsman who love what they do. The steps looks exquisite! I'm super happy and impressed. I would hire them again."

"Remodel went very well. Ken was attentive to my needs, and available anytime I wanted to talk. The project took a few unforeseen turns, which Ken and his crew gave advice to help navigate. He was also willing to pick up items we ordered online at the big box stores which was very helpful. I would hire him again for another project if needed in the future."

FAQs for wood stairs and railings repair projects in Vail, AZ

Hiring a pro to refinish wooden stairs means labor makes up 20% to 30% of your total budget. That price covers sanding, staining, and sealing each step. In most cases, a certified refinisher can tackle a 10-step staircase in about two hours, then apply stain and sealant for a durable, eye-catching finish that stands up to daily traffic.

A pro can sand a standard 10-step staircase in roughly two hours, then needs another four to six hours for each coat of stain and sealant to dry. DIYers should budget up to a week for sanding, staining, and sealing in stages. With a crew on site, the bulk of the work is completed in a single day, minimizing disruptions while still achieving a high-quality finish.

It’s possible to refinish stairs without full-scale sanding by using chemical strippers, power buffers, or simply layering a fresh finish over the existing coat. Chemical strippers break down old stains and sealants, while buffers quickly shave off surface material. Even so, a quick hand-sand with fine-grit paper helps the new finish bond properly and look smooth. As always, suit up in protective gear and follow product directions to keep your wood—and yourself—safe.

For most stair projects, you’ll want two sandpaper grits. Begin with 80- to 120-grit to strip the old finish and even out rough spots, then move to 150- to 220-grit for a smooth, ready-for-stain surface. A power sander speeds up the coarse pass, but switches to hand sanding with the fine grit in corners and along edges to keep abrasion even and give stain or sealer something to grab onto.
